    After a failed installation of Adobe CS 4 on my Windows Vista Business 32-bit system, I am now unable to update or uninstall anything Adobe on my PC.

    I have Windows 8 and I can't install updates. I discovered this when you try to upgrade to windows 8.1 and got a prompt to complete the installation of windows updates and then upgrade. I get the massage "windows update encountered a problem" and the code is 80246008. I tried a search to windows support but I have a solution for windows 7 or vista. I have 8 7 windows not and can not follow the instructions. I also tried the automatic Troubleshooter and managed to fix some errors, but not all, and updates can't be installed.

    Hello

    If you receive the Windows Update 80246008 error when downloading updates, you might need to change the (BITS) Background Intelligent Transfer Service or the Windows event log service settings and restart each service.

    Method 1: Unregister and re-register (BITS) Background Intelligent Transfer Service.

    a. press Windows + R key and type of BIT /Unregister. and then click OK.
    b. press Windows key + R, type BITS/REGSERVER, and then click OK. After you run this command, the operation is complete.

    1. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, enter in the right edge of the screen, and then click Search. Or, if you use a mouse, point to the corner bottom right of the screen, then click on Search. Type the command prompt in the Start Search box, right-click guest, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

    Note
    may take several minutes for each operation in order to fill.

    · DISM.exe / Online/Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

    · DISM.exe / Online/Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    3. close the command prompt, and then run Windows Update again.
    DISM creates a log (% windir%/Logs/CBS/CBS.log) file that captures any issues that the tool found or fixed. %windir%\System32 is the folder in which Windows is installed. For example, the %windir%\System32 folder is C:\Windows.
